Supernova Remnants

Two types of supernova remnant are morphologically recognized; shell type and center filled. As outlined in the VERITAS proposal the full array should detect $\sim$ 20 Galactic supernova remnants within 4 kpc of the Earth if the diffusive shock emission models are indeed correct. Table 5 lists the top 20 candidate targets of VERITAS with both a shell and center filled morphology.
